Hoop Information
What Is Adaptive Hooping?
“ADAPTIVE HOOPING/ADAPTIBILITY HOOPING”:
A gentle form of exercise based on your body, for your healing needs and goals, utilizing a hula hoop.

Ever wake up and something just isn’t working? It could be minor. It could be major. For some of us it’s a rare occurrence, and for others it’s a chronic challenge.
It’s also an excuse to take you out of the game of life. You read that right. I didn’t just say “reason,” I said “Excuse.”
This is because through my own experiences, and watching other amazing people, those people get on and figure out something that WILL Work. And they continue to figure out how to move in new, and sometimes changing ways.
The trick or secret to this, is finding the things you CAN do, through gentle adaption. For instance, can you sit in a chair and change your movements accordingly? Can you sit on the floor? What Can you do, even from bed?
6 ways you can still do Something (Anything!) to keep “Moving”:
- Go much slower.
- Change your range of movement.
- Experiment with adaptive variations of what you would normally do.
- Try 5-10% of the intensity.
- Do just a few movements, instead of how many more you previously did.
- Super Concentrate your practice with better technique. Pick one or two specific aspect to improve upon, and focus on those.
Learning (or relearning) how to move in a new way around or despite pain can be quite the challenge.
But the benefits and rewards can include:
• Increased mobility
• Speeding up healing time.
• Enjoying the process of coming back to full speed or any and all.

Hoop Love Ya’ll Show~Emerge Theme
In This Show Episode/Topics: “Emerge!”–Great tips for natural pain management so you can heal faster including: Arnica Montana homeopathic (and tips to help make it more effective), Ohco Motion (a Chinese herbal blend that also helps the body heal), and a Laughter Yoga exercise–because laughter is a natural pain medication. Plus I’m keeping Ya’ll up to date on my own personal happy healing (of skin cancer) journey–including how Judas Priest will be inspiring my bad ass costuming over a 4 inch scar–and how they helped squelch my panic attacks so I could go get this s**t taken care of!
•Humor/Health Tips – Holy Cow Arnica is so helping with my pain management. Also using Ohco Motion because it also helps the body to heal itself. Also doing more healing internally with raw cannabis juice, Mary’s Medicinal THC-a greens and Dragonfly Botanicals Hemp Oil—all of these are NON-psychoactive ways to heal using cannabis, FYI.

You don’t have to have a genuine laugh to start with…though by doing the fake laughter, you may develop a real chuckle or belly laugh along the way.

3 Reasons To Video Yourself with Camera Tips and Tricks
Here’s 3 reasons to video yourself, plus a video full of Camera Tips and Tricks to help you ease in, and do it. https://youtu.be/EenkXsL4ZMc
Getting on camera can be hard at first, but like anything: with practice, it gets more familiar, more comfortable, and yes…EASIER!!!
3 Reasons why you should video yourself:
1.) See your progress over time. When you can’t see instant gratification in the moment, these are snapshots to document your improvement.
2.) See what you can improve on. Don’t let your inner critic have a party, at the expense of your psyche. There are always things we can realistically notice and tweak ever so slightly to see the changes we want.
3.) Catch yourself doing RIGHT a.k.a Cool Things you didn’t even know you were doing, before you got to capture some of your own personal magic.

10 Essential Tips To Hoop On Feet Successfully:
- ♥ Start the hoop rotating on your hand.
- ♥ Slide pointed foot up the arm (keep foot and arm connected TOGETHER as ONE rotation point!), into the hoop, and slide the hand out.
- ♥ Go Barefoot! 🙂 Better grip!
- ♥ Use a mat to protect your spine and joints.
- ♥ Hoop on the instep of your foot (toe hooping is harder to control, and keep on the foot).
- ♥ You can do a hoop “break”–sending the hoop in the opposite direction by tapping the non-hooping foot on the outside of the hoop–quickly and gently.
- ♥ Watch your FACE! The hoop will be coming down unexpectedly while you are mastering this new trick. A Smaller, LIGHTER Hoop is recommended for this reason! FYI: Smaller and lighter will rotate faster, but hurts less when it bonks you!
- ♥ The hoop will also be flying off of your foot when starting…probably a Lot…move breakables and keep practicing! 🙂
- ♥ When the hoop slides down the ankle, slide other foot in and up and catch hoop back on the instep of either of your feet .
- ♥ You can move the foot hooping leg to angles by flexing your foot (Flexing acts as a “foot break”…when you point the foot it will release the hoop–so you can catch it, toss it, or transition into other moves!
